The central committee of President Mahmoud Abbas' Fatah movement decided on Tuesday to disconnect all ties with Islamic Hamas movement, Fatah said in an official statement.
The statement published by the state-run Palestinian Authority news agency "Wafa" said that the central committee of Fatah movement decided not to hold any dialogues or contacts or meetings with Hamas movement.
Fatah statement said the disconnection of ties with the Islamic movement, which it described as a movement of coup leaders, "would be on all levels."
Hamas movement's armed wing and its police executive force took over all the Palestinian Authority security headquarters including President Abbas' house and office in Gaza. Fatah claimed that Hamas also stormed the house of late leader Yasser Arafat.
Following the fighting in the Gaza Strip, which ended up with a full Hamas control there, Abbas sacked Ismail Haneya, the prime minister of the national unity government, who is a Hamas leader and formed a new emergency government.
Abbas had also issued a presidential decree outlawing Hamas movement's armed wing al-Qassam Brigades and its police executive force.
